We will gradually learn that what leads people up into the supersensible world can be attained in three ways. When one speaks of these three ways, one runs the risk of being regarded by some as a dreamer, and especially when describing the third way, as a complete fool, even though those who judge in this way know nothing about what it is all about. Three paths are shown to us: imagination or clairvoyance, inspiration, and intuition. These three paths have existed for millennia in human development and have always been followed. There have always been people who, through the methods taught, have been able to walk the path into the supernatural world.
